Re: [council] Working Group "C" final report

["Paul M. Kane" <Paul.Kane@reacto.com>]

Thanks Ken for posting this..... Would it be an idea for the NC to
welcome the first part of WG C report and take the initiative by
establishing a Task Force to formulate a short questionnaire inviting
prospective Registry operator(s) to indicate their interest in servicing
(any) new gTLDS(s) ...

Such indications of interest would (I believe) assist the Board to
"short-list" potential registries as to how each (prospective) Registry 
proposes to address such issues as, chartered/non-chartered,
profit/not-for-profit, Registry Experience/Escrow/safeguards proposals,
Consumer/well known/famous mark protection policies, etc.

As for the Tel conf.... I am giving a Lecture at St Catherine's College,
Oxford on the 30th, so I would prefer Friday 31st March.

Thoughts?? 

Best regards

Paul
